Best president ever!
Washington — The Supreme Court on Monday allowed the Trump administration to enforce its most ambitious effort yet to restrict legal immigration, allowing U.S. officials to implement a sweeping rule that critics warn will shut America's doors to low-income immigrants and people of color. In 5-4 ruling, the conservative-leaning high court approved the Trump administration's request to set aside a ruling by a federal judge blocking the so-called "public charge" regulation while the merits of the case continue to be argued in lower courts. The policy will require most green card and visa petitioners to prove they won't be a "public charge" — or an economic burden — on the country. It will give federal officials more power to deny visas and green card applications from immigrants and prospective immigrants whom the government determines rely, or could rely, on certain public benefits like food stamps or government housing programs.
